I promise to reply to comments tomorrow. Am ridiculously exhausted and swamped (and trying to stay unspoiled for SUFBB 9-10. SPOIL ME AND DIE).

OK, on with the show...

1. Did you ever find yourself thinking "I wish there was another kdrama with the exact plot of You're Beautiful minus the awesomeness of Jang Geun Seok?" If so, your dreams are about to be realized. Channel A is getting ready to premiere The Ultimate Audition, a drama starring Park Yoohwan (Yoochun's baby brother) and a bunch of newbie idols, all about a girl cross-dressing to join an idol group and getting involved with the group leader, who's perfect in front of the fans but is actually a jerk in private. Sound familiar? If I were Hong Sisters, I'd be getting my lawyers up.



Your eyes bleeding yet?

Snark (and the fact that even writing the above paragraph reduced my IQ by a dozen points) aside, I am all set for the first ep to air, and I will be all over this baby. Sometimes I enjoy silly cotton candy and this makes me think of my fun twdramas of old. Now, let's hope there will be subs - viki doesn't have rights to cable stuff, this is likely to be too low-profile for dramafever and withs2, so my hope is in DS...

2. So excited for King 2 Hearts which makes me think more and more of some of my favorite shoujo. And darn if Lee Seung Gi doesn't look handsome in that uniform and with that hairstyle:



I normally fall for his characters like mad, but this is the first time I've found him gorgeous off the bat.









Also, Ha Ji Won is ridiculously gorgeous and I can't tell the age difference at all (I mean, I have no idea if it's supposed to be an older woman/younger man romance, but I am willing to buy they are the same age!)

3. Speaking of royals getting involved with kickass ladies, the posters for Rooftop Prince are out and they are all adorable (you can find them all on soompi and dramabeans) but this is my favorite:



This is going to be kooky adorable!

4. I have watched the first ep of the Qing palace mystery Mystery in the Palace, starring Gai Ting Ting and Kevin Cheng (a.k.a. the only man except for FSF to actually look gorgeous in Qing braid). It's gorgeous (the costumes! the sets!), the story is interesting, and the OTP (who may or may not be half-siblings) will be just my thing, if MVs and previews are anything to go by:



5. Apparently the OTPs of Dream High 2 are still as clear as mud 10 (out of 16) episodes in. There are ship wars. By this point, I think TPTB are just screwing with fangirls.

so true...the age difference is simply not noticeable at all! I had a problem with this in Hwang Jin Yi where Jang Geun Seuk looked like he could be Ha Ji Won's baby brother....nut not here..and I think this partly cuz of Lee Seun Gi looking much older with his new haircut but mostly because of Ha Ji Won and how she has NEVER EVER changed much in like the last ten years or so
also Park Yoo Hwan is such a cutie...it's a shame that the drama sounds so unappealing...despite the fact that YAB is one of my all time fav dramas....But I think that was mainly because of the Hongs and JGS's killer performance

Yes, HJW looks amazing.

PYH is cute. I might check out his trainwreck drama anyway.

I still wish CSW (Great Love, City Hall) would have been in Kings 2 Heart instead of LSG. Oh wellllllllllllllllll......................

I am really off CSW after Greatest Love so glad it's LSG :)

Don't get me wrong Mousie! I like LSG...I was just worried about the age difference.

But after seeing the trailer...it might work! Wooohoooo!

Oh dear, do we really need yet another crossdressing drama?

Will check out both King 2 Hearts and RP... it's farely raining royals in K-TV these days.

Damn if I'm not panting for subs for SUFBB so we can squee together. ;P I can't stop posting about it (don't read them - there be spoilerish stuff), which is quite uncanny in itself.

Gah. Mystery In The Palace killed me with episode 1, not in the good way. =S The accidental rape was horrible....

I was skipping around so I missed that bit. Is that when she got into the wrong palanquin or something?

that haircut is really working for lee seung-gi which is great especially since he's had a number of really shitty and unflattering haircuts over the years.

Apparently the OTPs of Dream High 2 are still as clear as mud 10 (out of 16) episodes in. There are ship wars. By this point, I think TPTB are just screwing with fangirls.
the ships in dream high 2 is just really confusing tbh. sometimes it feels like the writers don't even know who is supposed to be with who and the character and relationship developments are just so damn sudden that sometimes it feels like it came out of nowhere. i dropped the drama but ngl still crossing my fingers that my ship ends up together.

Who do you ship?

I confess to shipping JB/Rian despite not seeing any eps, due to fandom osmosis.

Yoo-jin/Hye-sung are my ship. The band-aid scene in episode 3 sold it for me and I'm a sucker for the way he looks at her (or looked at her considering they've barely shared any scenes in the latest episodes). I also like the actor who plays Yoo-jin a hell of a lot more than JB (I totally admit to irrationally disliking that kid's face. I think he's a bad actor and a mediocre dancer.) so it's hard for me to ship JB with anyone since I just kind of want his face off my screen.

I would add Jet Li as one of few men who can pull off the qing braid. I think he looked pretty good with this kind of hairstyle in Wong fei hung or Fong sai yuk

Hmmm, now I need to do research :)

You're Beautiful minus Jang Geun Seok doesn't sound all that appealing. I'll just watch the jversion if I want that. ;)

I am dying for King 2Hearts. Wasn't all that interested in the plot but the cast! And the pictures! Now!!

And Rooftop Prince looks cracktastic!

leaving this here because its too cute not to


That haircut is doing wonders for Seung Gi
It ages him quite well and he looks hot to boot
if King 2 hearts is a black comedy i hope it will be as brilliant as history of a salaryman, which i absolutely love
I've fallen off the MoonSun wagon so i need brilliant march dramas
